The Undiscovered Entrepreneur: Driving Business Skills in UK Schools

Young Enterprise commissioned independent polling company Censuswide to survey 1,004 parents with children under the age of 16 across the UK in June 2018. Additionally, Young Enterprise conducted in-depth interviews with 10 teachers from across the country in May 2018 asking questions around how entrepreneurialism can be developed in schools and recording their attitudes to pupil performance and
personal development.

All teachers interviewed were involved in the Young Enterprise Tenner challenge, which is sponsored by Business Growth Fund (BGF).

As part of the challenge young people are pledged £10 from the Tenner Bank and use this start-up capital to get their enterprise off the ground. Participants have one month to make as much impact and profit as they
can
